Scabies is a common skin disease in cats caused by mite infestation, one of which is Sarcoptes scabiei. An unsterilized male domestic 4 years old cat, weighing 4.75 kg, with a history of hair loss and itching. On physical examination, lesions were found in the form of alopecia, papules, hyperkeratosis, erythema, crusting, scales, escoriation and ulcers on the skin of the cat's face, ears and neck. The mucosa of the cat's mouth and eyes is pale and swelling of the lymphnodes with a hard consistency and increased temperature of the overlying skin.
